My son has packed up & leaving Teen Challenge this morning, I have had contact with his mentor who tried convincing him to stay but my son was adamant he did not want to stay anymore. My son said he is going to a rehab in Daytona , I don’t even know how he heard of this place but I did pay for the greyhound ticket . I only talked to my son once yesterday to try to convince him to stay but he said no , he just went on saying very hurtful & hateful things to me , saying I’m just someone who gave birth to him, that I mean nothing to him , asking where I was when he was eating out of garbage cans when he was in Chicago , he just went on & on with very cruel words. I just told him I love him & let him go , I could not take the abuse . I don’t know what got into him ,when he left he was so hopeful, told me he loved me , yesterday he was full hate towards me . I’m at a loss that he is in another state alone with no family or friends. I’m heartbroken he only lasted 2 weeks at this program & decided to give up and now will be in a city he does not know . I pray this other rehab takes him in , I don’t even know if they will take his insurance, he has no money to pay for it , he is not thinking clearly.
